is there a GEM for IRIX??
-I found an old one. Not sure whether it'll run with 0.37... Also not sure if it's possible to get Mathieu Bouchard's gridflow under Irix working...
I've seen GridFlow 0.7.x run on OSX/PPC, Solaris/SPARC, and I just got it to run on a ARM-V4L without adding anything ARM-specific, so I guess a SGI/MIPS/Irix port wouldn't be so difficult. By experience, most of the trouble comes from OS differences.
I think I recall trying to compile GF on a 12-processor SGI/MIPS and there were a few troubles I was having with that IRIX OS but the most trouble was stemming from the fact that the math dept puts a 10M quota on every account (!!!). I abandoned quickly but I don't recall why. Anyhow, seeing "make -j15" run was quite impressive. ;-)
